I have been experiencing very slow loading of the website for some weeks now. When I post anything and want to check it before I post the box is very very slow in loading and then there is a huge white gap in the page and I have to scroll down to the very bottom to see what I have written. Is anyone else having the same problem? Sometimes if when it is loading and seems to have stalled I click in the side of the screen it loads all of a sudden. Anyone know why.

Glad you had a good day in Worcester.
Kind Regards, Old Herbaceous.

Hi, Catherine
I haven't had trouble loading the website, but I haven't been able to preview my posts at all for the last month or so - I just get a white gap, like you. The same happens whether I use my very slow laptop or my usually very fast desktop.
I didn't used to have any problems. Strange, isn't it?

:idea:
Right, I've just previewed this post and discovered that my post is there if I scroll down far enough, like you are having to do.
Thanks - you've saved me from having to post unpreviewed things any more.
But it's still strange, isn't it? I never used to have to do that. :?

Hi Caz. I posted something after OH and the internet crashed and lost my post. I could not be bothered to retype my words so I didn't. When posting it did not used to show the page like that when I first joined this forum but for some reason it is doing it now.

Bren - did you go to the Christmas market in Worcester? We went this morning, and nearly froze to death! I thought it wasn't as good as usual, but that may be because I'm all bunged up with cold and didn't really want to be there....lots of people there though.
